Finally got a chance to toss one of the wheels this weekend just to see how it looks.



Thanks again, Alonzo.

I put it side by side with my 225/50-16 and it is amazingly close in width.

Yeah, just to see how it looked. Still too rainy and I want to head back up to the snow, so these won't see permanent duty until it dries up.

Yeah, they are pretty awesome. Kinda loud. They aren't a summer tire, but they've gripped like hell for me in wet and dry. Amazing in the wet. Only been to the snow once since I got them and they ruled. I think they have a wear rating of 440, so they should last a while.

hahahhah, I know they suck, but I thought I'd ask. I always torqued them myself and never let anyone else touch them. I never had a problem with them. FREE for anyone that wants them.

Psha, I made it over the pass last night (Placerville to Reno via South Lake Tahoe) on my Kumho MXs last night in that Blizzard. I did the drive almost one year ago too with 712s
